The central and southern parts exhibit moderate to gently “undulating terrain” having sparsely distributed knolls and tors. The remaining part of the taluk is in general a “plateau area”. This has its bearing on the regional slope which is towards northeast. The differential altitude is significant because, it is 3 likely to cause irregular ground water flow patterns on the micro scale (Fig. 3). Topography is dominantly controlled by geological structures. The entire area of Halyal taluka is being drained by Kali river and its tributaries. Generally, the drainage pattern of the river is dendritic to sub dendritic (Fig. 4). Fig-3: Geomorphology Map Fig-4: Drainage Map 1.6 Soil The soils of Haliyal taluk can broadly be classified into clayey and clayey skeletal soils. The clayey soils are produced in high rainfall area because of the leaching process. These soils vary in depth and texture, depending on the parent rock type, physiographic settings and climatic conditions (Fig. 5). 4 Fig-5: Soil Map 1.7 Ground water resource availability and extraction Aquifer wise total groundwater resources up to 200 m depth is given in Table-5 below.

Aquifer-I (Phreatic aquifer) Weathered schist ii. Aquifer-II (Fractured aquifer) Fractured schist In Haliyal taluk, schistose rocks of Dharwar group are the main water bearing formations (Fig- 9). Ground water occurs within the weathered and fractured schist under water table condition and semi-confined condition. In Haliyal taluk bore wells were drilled from a minimum depth of 181 mbgl to a maximum of 200 mbgl. Depth of weathered zone ranges from 7 to 10 mbgl. Ground water exploration reveals that aquifer-II fractured formation was encountered between the depth of 20 to 105 mbgl. Yield ranges from 0.20 to 5.5 lps. Ground water exploration done in this taluk is given in Table 5, and the basic characteristics of each aquifer are summarized in Table 6. Table-6: Details of Ground Water Exploration Sl.

The study area was Yallapura taluk of the Uttara Kannada district. The information was collected LBS Building, Pusa Campus, on the basis of personal interview to each of the farmer through a questionnaire. A total samples of 235 New Delhi, India farmers were selected randomly from three villages viz., Savane, Honnahalli and Hadlikere of the Yallapura taluk during 2016-18. The study revealed that they are very poor farmers with low literacy Md. Idris rates and poor knowledge about agricultural methods. They grow only rice, arecanut, betelvine and ICAR-National Research Centre vegetables without any awareness about their improved management practices. By introducing facilities of Integrated Pest Management of modern technology through Tribal Sub Plan (TSP) programme, their socio-economic standard can be LBS Building, Pusa Campus, New Delhi, India increased.

K. Puram, New Delhi-110066 FOREWORD Salinity is a significant challenge and poses risks to sustainable development of Coastal regions of India. If left unmanaged, salinity has serious implications for water quality, biodiversity, agricultural productivity, supply of water for critical human needs and industry and the longevity of infrastructure. The Coastal Salinity has become a persistent problem due to ingress of the sea water inland. This is the most significant environmental and economical challenge and needs immediate attention. The coastal areas are more susceptible as these are pockets of development in the country. Most of the trade happens in the coastal areas which lead to extensive migration in the coastal areas. This led to the depletion of the coastal fresh water resources. Digging more and more deeper wells has led to the ingress of sea water into the fresh water aquifers turning them saline. The rainfall patterns, water resources, geology/hydro-geology vary from region to region along the coastal belt.

  • Responsible for Plague in Bombay Province, Though They Have Been
    Bull. Org. mond. Sante Bull. World Hlth Org.J 1951, 4, 75-109 SPREAD OF PLAGUE IN THE SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL DIVISIONS OF BOMBAY PROVINCE AND PLAGUE ENDEMIC CENTRES IN THE INDO-PAKISTAN SUBCONTINENT a M. SHARIF, D.Sc., Ph.D., F.N.I. Formerly Assistant Director in Charge of Department of Entomology, Haffkine Institute, Bombay b Manuscript received in September 1949 The findings of the Plague Recrudescence Inquiry in Sholapur and Adjoining Districts, conducted by Sharif & Narasimham11 12 in the districts of Sholapur and Dharwar during 1940 to 1943, do not support the idea that wild rodents help to carry plague infection from one place to another as in " temperate climes ".4 Wild rodents cannot be considered responsible for plague in Bombay Province, though they have been shown to be so in Transbaikalia, Mongolia, South-Eastern Russia, South Africa, and the western parts of the USA.17 In Bombay Province, the domestic rat perpetuates the plague infection. In some suitable places the infection among domestic rats goes on throughout the year. The infection is not apparent during the hot and dry season, its intensity being diminished because of the ill effect of prevailing climatic conditions on the wanderings of adult rat-fleas ; it pursues the course of a slow subterranean enzootic from burrow to burrow. The conclusion of the off-season is characterized by the advent of the rainy season, which exerts its influence in two ways first, it causes the rats from outside shelters to herd into burrows indoors and remain there perforce, which results in a considerable increase in the rat population within houses; secondly, it brings down the temperature and increases the humidity to such an extent as to result in a striking rise in the flea population and to allow rat-fleas to come out of burrows to attack human beings.
